Go strong, get it won, put all the pressure on Chelsea to keep getting results for top four until the very end.

Is the correct answer

Is the correct answer

The correct answer is do whatever Pep thinks best, would be surprised if he makes less than 7 changes.

2 options here:

Either go full strength in an attempt to dominate and win the league. Also leaves then slogging it out for top 4 for the next 3 weeks.

or

Completely rotate again, so they don't get a feel for our full strength side (if that would actually matter and assuming they make the final).

You'll get splinters with posts like that ;-)

Pfft, what does Pep know.... :)

There’s a third option I think is more likely. Rotate 4-5 as he often does. Laporte, cancelo, rodri, Sterling and Jesus seem the obvious changes to me. Keeps us strong, keeps them motivated and included.

A sneaky 1-0 off John Stones cock will do - then we proper batter them in Istanbul as it looks like they may go through tonight at this stage.

Difficult team for us this. Pep will rest players here but so might Chelsea. Take a draw now

Sentences like that almost always end with the poster who said it being very surprised.

Chelsea can't. They risk losing top4 with a weakened team. Our second team is no pushover with Aguero now back in form. I'd back us to win given we're on high spirit

If they win against real we need to put strong team out and show them what we are because it will be a big confidence booster if we beat them .
